Catalogue "My Shelves" Private Feature
HPL card holders have the option to make their My Shelves (For Later, Completed and In Progress) titles private.
To do so, log in to your account. In the top right corner where your user name appears, choose the cog wheel (beside the envelope symbol) or scroll down to My Settings. (Figure 1)
Then, scroll down to Privacy. Where it says My Shelves click on Change. Three boxes appear indicating which feature you would like to make private: For Later, Completed and In Progress. Click on the ones you would like to make private. Then click Save Changes. (Figure 2)
If you need assistance to update your settings, please call (905) 546-3200 or contact us via Online Chat.
